At WebCoast last week, Awoque launched our social good campaign to highlight young people, contributing to society and making a difference through social media.

As experts in social networking, we understand the power of this medium to evoke people to become involved in a good cause. One great example of this kind of passion is “Charity Water” there are countless others too and we are proud of you guys.

Whilst at WebCoast we decided to find a company/individual or group that was doing something about a cause they are passionate about. We found that person in Thina Grotmark, who drives a blog Beyond Sizes, which is dedicated to supporting and uplifting people who are of a lager size. As her blog says, “Love the skin you are in”. Thina, speaks openly about issues, fashion, food, heath, etc, and emphasizes acceptance to help promote better self-esteem amongst her audience. Thina, is on the right track, as her readership has risen to over a 1000 unique users/per day and in her home country of Sweden that isn’t half bad!

Du kan följa med virtuellt där jag är nu är, på Webcoast. Du kan delta, dela vår glädje och lära dig massor. Hur många High Five får vi till denna helg? Är du nyfiken, önskar att du var här, följ oss på Twitter #webcoast. Awoque och eWebbyrån finns i rosa soffa (från Smällkaramell).
